GM Sets Recall Parts Plan in Overdrive: Seven-day operation
expects to have all parts needed made by October

DETROIT--May 16, 2014: With parts production running seven days a week on
multiple shifts, General Motors plans to produce enough repair parts by
October to have the ability to repair the majority of the vehicles impacted
by the ignition switch and ignition cylinder recalls.

“Given that the ignition switch was in very limited production for
several years, GM’s supplier, Delphi, increased production, pulled
machinery out of storage, and found new suppliers for some of the part
components,” wrote Jeff Boyer, vice president of GM Global Safety,
today on GM FastLane. “We are buying new machinery and equipment to
make parts quickly.”

GM and Delphi are working to get two additional production lines up and
running this summer.
